The benefits of zinc on the skin in detail

Zinc and acne

Zinc plays an essential role in skin health, particularly due to its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to regulate sebum production . Specifically, zinc works by inhibiting the activity of 5-alpha reductase , an enzyme involved in sebum synthesis, thereby reducing the risk of pore obstruction and pimple formation. It is therefore a valuable aid for people who suffer from acne.

Wound healing

Zinc is a mineral that plays an important role in the wound healing process , repair, and maintenance of skin integrity through several mechanisms. Zinc is an important cofactor for over 300 enzymes , including those involved in protein synthesis and cell division, processes vital for wound healing. It also helps in the formation of collagen, a major protein for connective tissue , thereby accelerating the repair of damaged tissue.

Hydration and protection of the skin barrier

As part of an effective anti-blemish routine, zinc also plays a role in hydrating and protecting the skin barrier. An essential trace element , zinc helps maintain skin integrity by promoting tissue repair and regulating sebum production. Choosing products containing zinc thus guarantees optimal hydration, without clogging your skin's pores.

In addition, zinc's anti-inflammatory properties soothe the skin and reduce redness. It offers a major dual protective and restorative action, which helps preserve your skin barrier.

Prevention of premature aging

When it comes to fighting premature skin aging, zinc can also have an impact in preventing the signs of aging. By acting as a powerful antioxidant, it is able to neutralize free radicals , responsible for cellular aging. It also helps in the synthesis of collagen, for firmer and more elastic skin. Thanks to its restorative properties, zinc helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and scars, for visibly younger and healthier skin.
